Being able to directly connect to other players is fine but you need to already know a buddy and their IP address first. You would no longer be able to connect to a random game with random people. I loved playing Doom 2 & Warcraft 2 with others but could only do it with my friend when he was home and online or we packed up our computer and took it to the other persons house.

That COULD be an option but very few people would use it today.

Put a DVD copy of the movies in a satellite, launch it and beam the movies down to NK in every electronic format possible from AM radio to HD. Put the movies on loop and hit play.

I was under the impression this was kept to Sony Pictures and didn't involve the electronics side.

Last I checked all my utilities other than water are private companies. My taxes won't pay my electric, gas or phone bill. If I don't pay any of them then they get shut off.

Also I pay my water bill to my local city and it's not even part of my taxes.

Companies can create jobs if they want. 40 years ago an auto manufacturing factory might have employed 3,000 workers. That same factory today would most likely only employee 1,000 because robots replace most of the workers on the lines. In the meantime the company makes more income because they don't have to pay 2,000 employees various wages and benefits.

Companies today are requiring their current employees to do the work of 2-4 people so they don't have to hire more.

Dude might have a pair of Flips headphones, or better yet, Beats headphones! He's going to bring schoolhouse rock back. /end sarcasm

I don't really even understand the point in XLTE anyways. I can pull 50mbit on my LTE. Why would anyone need faster over a cell phone?

My speeds range from 15 to 65mbits. I would guess average around 20.

It's believed that the human brain greatly evolved from eating meat afterall.

It appears you reply in anger before reading who the comment was from so I'm going to assume your reply was for DiamondGeezer as mind was the first one made.

Also my comment was anything but aggressive while you're comment is slightly on the aggressive side, you know, saying I'm spreading lies about vegans and all when I in fact never said anything about vegans. I simply don't like someone telling me or others to fix something that isn't broken. I'm very healthy if not on the tad under weight side according to my Dr. Matter a fact, last cholesterol levels were too low. Sounds like I need to eat more fatty meats and some yummy eggs.

So in the end, you feel something is wrong with me because I eat meat. Don't say otherwise because, here let me quote you:

I never say anything was wrong with being vegan.

My meat packed freezer and diet are just fine. now please stop forcing your beliefs upon others. Do as you wish and I'll do as I wish.

What if my "non-mainstream ideal" is that I need to view at least 1 hour of porn a day. Should the prison be required to supply me with that each day?

If you don't want to eat the food the prison supplies then fine, the prison will get you your special meal but once you're released you're sent a bill for your choice of food. There will be an exception if you require a special diet but only if a doctor states it's needed for you to live.

I partly agree with that. I've played Ingress with a group of people before and we we travel around the non AT&T/Verizon users data would often go in and out. They ended up just needing to tether to one of our hotspots.

The cheaper services in my area have many many dead zones.

Like Verizon charging it's customers extra to be able to use the Hot-Spot on their phone...

That worked out well for the Silk Road 2.0 people who thought they were all hidden and anonymous.
